OctPoWriMo 27 - A Wild Rose



A Wild Rose

Petals of satin
Shades of white through magenta
I remember Mom

The fragrance of spring
Delicate blooms and sharp thorns
I remember Mom

Ev’ry year I’d bring
Her a wild rose from our yard
I remember Mom

  1. Lovely poem in memory of your Mom.
    I really like the first one. And the mixture of delicacy and thorns...

  3. What a great poem made of three haikus . Love the repetition of last line and the power of a story, a life, told through a flower
